Re: VF-16 ace
Actually, according to the book "Hellcat Aces of WWII", all VF-16 pilots had an assigned aircraft and while in most squadrons pilots seldom flew their "assigned" planes, VF-16 was one of the few squadrons that did make the effort. So the odds are good that Buie was at the controls in the photo.
